Sustained pupil constriction following brief light exposure: Relation to retinal health
Summary:
This paper discusses the role of intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs) in the pupillary light reflex (PLR) and post-illumination pupil response (PIPR), and how these responses can be used as a clinical tool for evaluating patients with glaucomatous optic neuropathy (GON) or melanopsin-related disorders.
Categories
- Eye health: The paper discusses the role of ipRGCs in the PLR and PIPR, which are important aspects of eye health, and how these responses can be used as a clinical tool for evaluating patients with GON or melanopsin-related disorders.
- Cognitive function and memory: The paper discusses the role of ipRGCs in the PLR and PIPR, which are important aspects of cognitive function and memory, as they are involved in the processing of visual information.
